New Directions in Elementary School Math
Autor Emma E. Holmesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 feb 1995
A new text that focuses on “interactive teaching”, a new, more effective technique for helping elementary-school children learn mathematics! This exciting technique is the lynchpin of a fresh approach to teaching mathematics based on the constructivist theory of learning. It uses modeling, manipulatives, and questioning techniques to encourage learners to reason, problem-solve, communicate, and make connections as they think about numbers and space, construct concepts, and develop procedures for solving mathematical problems.
